Everything is Ducky.
I glumly related to The Socialist this evening that I realized that the concert date was on a night he was scheduled to teach. He paused and thought a moment and then said, “No it’s not. We have Spring Break that week.”

Weekend. Time to catch-up, recuperate, plan and fret simultaneously. Hectic as things can get, I never find myself looking forward to Monday, though. I got my hair done this morning, some finances worked out this afternoon, The Socialist’s Christmas presents finished off, and some messing around accomplished on the computer. Last August I purchased tickets…
Numbers: 10:39 a.m., 5/30/02
Two thousand eight hundred and twenty-three believed dead. Three hundred and forty-three of them were firefighters. Many were killed instantly, but perhaps over a thousand of them survived the initial impacts. More than three hundred of them took advantage of the extra last minutes granted to them to phone or email to the outside world,…
Dental Phobe – Part 2
Well, I made the call to the dentist yesterday, and left a message. Still no response. Part of me knows I ought to call back, but a bigger part of me is cackling to itself, saying “OK, I did my part, now I can kick back and forget about it.” It’s rather like the big…
The Final Frontier
I had a strange dream last night, all the stranger for the fact that I remembered it. I know why I had it. Yesterday was the thirty-fifth anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. And yesterday I was speaking to friends about playing favorites with children. The anniversary of the moon landing leaves me nostalgic….
How I figured it out.
AQuietEvening wanted to know how I found out who gave the Doubleday book club my email address. It was actually due to the misspelling of my name. I knew I’d seen that particular misspelling somewhere before, but couldn’t place it. When I got home Friday, I started sorting my bills, getting things ready to be…

Serendipity is weird. And yes, this ties back to that “What tree are you this morning?” question that I’ve been playing with for four days now. Or is it five? I’ve lost track. I hit upon the answer this morning. Out of the blue, I knew what the right answer was, and why. But then…
You gave me a good laugh. The kitty and the replacement phenomenon. Me too, me too.
I USED, to be around a dunder head who was forever going on about how tired she was due to all the volunteer time she put in. (She didn’t feel appreciated either, boo hoo hoo) One hour of selling raffle tickets at the door and 6 hours of her griping about how hard she worked.
You -will- find someone to go with you, through the sheer force of my desire. Don’t stop asking.
It’s a realy shame that The Mouth doesn’t have A Brain. >:(
I have no idea who you’re talking about but I would go, just to go….too bad I’m so far away!

Maybe you were dreaming you were awake?
I don’t suppose you could go to see Dar with one of your sisters? Or would that be too much torture?

your workmate sounds entirely obnoxious
it wouldn’t surprise me if one of the rules of the universe states that in every work place it is compulsory to have such a person as the Mouth. we have a few of those people here, one in particular is notoriously difficult to work with. this person makes tidal waves if they do not get their own way all of the time
as for your liver transplant, not something necessarily easy to face but you sound like you are taking it all in stride. that’s really commendable, good for you
thanks for the comments. it makes one wonder how self-involved 2 people can be to have a wednesday wedding hundreds of miles from home!
take care 🙂

I’d go to see DW with you to brighten up an already bright event. I’m far from everybody, now! Well, I’m close to Tex and that makes up for the rest ;o)
– How is it that I can be insomniac and wide-awake at 6:00 a.m. only to be jolted out of a deep sleep at 6:30 a.m. by my alarm clock?
A: You relax when you know the nights almost over, and fall asleep.
– Why is the Kitten’s favorite place to sleep while I’m at the computer directly behind the wheels of my chair?
A: Because that’s where she finally gets exhausted after doing all that stuff behind your back
– How do the disc jockeys know how to time things so that the first thing I hear when I turn on the radio is the last ten seconds of my favorite song?
A: It’s taught in 400 level DJ courses at their secret DJ university
– Why is Cattitude’s affection for any given food item in direct proportion to the likelihood it will make her throw up?
A: It’s part of their charm
– Is it a requirement that I will only be able to figure out where I put some pricey item after I’ve gone out and purchased a replacement for it?
A: It’s not a requirement, but it is a "suggestion"
– What cosmic karma ensures that my Mr. Coffee at work will die the final death five seconds after the onset of my most intense caffeine craving in months?
A: The warranty just expired
Very awesome that you will both be able to go!

LOL at Shay’s answers.
Glad you and the Socialist get to enjoy the concert together after all. Spring break for us is this week.
Shame, shame, shame on your coworker. Hope you don’t catch her cold. Let me see her vocal cords, I only need one more intubation. 😉
You know, it is not possible at all to buy any Dar Williams CD’s here. I asked at a music shop and they wanted about a extra $30.00 ($15USA) on top of the overinflated price, to have one sent out!!
Its pathetic, cos the words of her songs and the little I have heard on the net is awesome.
Dar Williams RULES.
You’ll love her show! Even if you do have to go alone!!
